2016 HG: PEOPLE: AvatarFEST, the second year. Videos

AvatarFEST, the second year. Videos

Festivals and other gatherings are popular in the virtual worlds of the metaverse. That is probably because we can get to any of them in less than a minute--with no travel cost. And experienced content creators can build an elegant display in a few working days by drawing on content they already have. Here is a report (with videos) on one such festival.

Comments by Leighton Marjoram

This is my second video in the AvatarFest 2016 series where I retrace my steps from the day and show you what I saw, heard and danced too. -The video is about 13 minutes and hope to have done justice by conveying the essence of each performance. There is much more material and trying to condense it into only 13 minutes was no mean feat. -Performances: DJ Jeremy, UFS roleplay, readings by Dings Digital & Emil Jannings, Joao Frazao and finally to end the day the Avatar Repertory Theater performed “Two Gentlemen of Verona”.

WATCH IN HD: A few stragglers are left on the dancefloor near the end of an 8 hour set at 2AM. DJ Strannik plays a couple of original mixes of solid beats and sonic textures. This is an annual event on the Opensimulator Hypergrid (virtual world). See for more info:
